Guardian advent 17th December

Todays link is here. This takes you to a site with a picture showing you how to use Furoshiki. According to Wikipedia Furoshiki are a type of traditional Japanese wrapping cloth that were frequently used to transport clothes, gifts, or other goods. Although possibly dating back as far as the Nara period, the name, meaning "bath spread", derives from the Edo period practice of using them to bundle clothes while at the public baths.
